I am looking for information on Mary Elizabeth Guice and William Waters ....both born btwn 1800-1827.....from North Carolina (Henderson I think). She was married to William Waters and their son was Joseph A. Waters b. 1847. I am unable to fin Joseph on the 1850 census...but on the 1860 census he is living with a Guice family in Henderson, North Carolina. Also on Joseph's death certificate it shows that Elizabeth Guice was his mother and W Waters was his father.

Can you give me any more relatives around these people?

what information can you get from jospeh a waters death certificate? on most you can get b/d dates, both names of father and mother, location of birth and death. i would also look on there to see where he was buried. if the parents stayed in the same area, they may also be in the same cemetery.

how far back have you gone...or is this your brick wall? check for find a grave for all 3. check for siblings. it is not unusual for someone to show up on one census but not the next but then reappear. that missing person may have been staying with another relative.

don't give up hope!

I found out some info about the Guice's. Now I am trying to find information on William Waters born about 1802. Found a family file that states he died in 1856...Henderson County, NC....but I am unable to find any documentation or graves to support this. I know I cant find him on the 1860 census, so I am assuming this is true. I would love to research this family farther back, but not sure how to find his parents. Mitchell Joseph is my line and I have information for him. In 1860 Joseph was living with the Guice's in Henderson, NC because I think both parents were dead by then. So William Waters (1802) is my brick wall......This is what I have so far....
